That movie was terrible, if a complete campfest. You can be silly and good, Deadpool has proven it two times already. I'm not saying Batman needed to become Deadpool, but that's a good template to follow in terms of silliness but, at the same time, remaining a quality movie. And, to me, The Lego Batman Movie is what comes closest to that vision I had of a sillier Batman. Realistically speaking, to me, this is more canon Batman than DCEU's continued attempts to replicate what came before in terms of the Batman character. But, let's get on with this shall we? With that out of the way, it should be noted that the movie THIS version of Batman first appeared in (The Lego Movie) is fantastic. I don't know why I felt the needed to point that out, but there you go. You know, the thing about most Batman movies is that, quite frankly, a lot of them are afraid to be compared to what came before. And I understand that, they're attempting to do their own thing while attempting to add to the character's legacy. With that said and not saying that, at least as I can remember, there's no real nod or wink to what came before in most, if any, of the previous Batman movies. Though, to be fair, I haven't kept up with the most recent incarnation of the character and, quite frankly, I'm not that interested. Regardless, I think this movie does something that's quite cool.
And that is the fact that, while it does its own thing that's unique to it, it's also a movie that pays tribute to every incarnation of Batman out there.
